| La Union December 2011 |
This week was kinda tough, with Christmas and Año Nuevo and what not, but I'm doing all right. So we don't have any new baptisms this week and better yet, barley had church. This ward is struggling a little bit, but that's what we're here for. Now I understand why the Union was closed before haha. It's a hard area. We've had maybe one reference in the whole past month and maybe 2 or 3 from the months that have passed. I'm getting a little discouraged out here, so please pray for me. We spent 2 days straight knocking doors and only got 3 nuevo investigators. Yeah, that was kind of tough, but I looked at it as a chance to improve my Spanish a bit haha. Anyways, we're teaching a person se llama Tempora. She's pretty open to what we're speaking and likes to hear that word of God. She doesn't know a ton, but that's fine, cause that's what were here for haha. Anyway, I'm hoping that she will be the next one to hop in the water and be baptised. Elder Castillo is still great, and he is doing his part. We help lift each other up. We're a good team, although we have a huge height difference....but I guess that's normal for me everywhere in the world.
I'm glad that everyone is doing good. Tell Bek that I hope that she gets a little bit better, and that I love her. Tell Nick that he's a champ and that he can do anything. Tell Spencer thanks for his letter. It's kinda weird, right now they are playing musica americano en ingles pero its kinda hard to distinguish what they are saying cause usually its in Spanish....I like it haha love you guys sooooooo much. If the extended family is there, tell them hi for me. We're doing good here in La Union. Just sometimes, the mission is a little hard, so pray for me please......please.
Love,
Elder Pinegar
